 | Bentley revealed the new Continental GT at the Frankfurt Motor Show. The Continental GT is now one of the oldest models in production, with the original coupe having first appeared as far back as the 2003 Geneva auto show. It was the pioneer 'luxury grand tourer' — a big car with a nominal back seat and a big motor up front, designed to transport well-heeled couples from an urban enclave to a vacation escape. |
 | A revised version of the company’s 6.0-litre W12 produces 626bhp and 900Nm of torque between 1,750rpm and 4,000rpm – enough to take the car from 0-60mph in 3.6 seconds onto a 207mph top speed. The W12 now has cylinder-deactivation technology. |  |
 | A dual-clutch transmission, plus a part-time four-wheel-drive system helps smooth the ride. 48V electrics powers the active anti-roll bars. This technology, called Bentley Dynamic Ride, gives the car handling agility and long-distance cruising prowess. |  |
 | The new Continental is available to order, with the first examples arriving in the first quarter of 2018. Price hasn't been revealed but is expected to be something north of $195,000 |  |
